and whatever we're all over the place we're all over the place thank you very very much for being here thank you one almost expects i don't mean to i know i'm not even going to say it i have one one bone to pick with you already uh oh what which one is that you said i was a foreign diplomat what country diplomatic service i'm sorry u.s ambassador that's right united states let's go back a little bit here because everything it just seems like everything fell in place for you here here you were in with the kitty crowd at a dance studio a hollywood type comes along says oh this there's some potential here you go out you make a few shorts and next thing you know fox picks you up and and as far as the united states is concerned you're the best thing that has happened since sliced bread wasn't was it that easy well if you say so i i had my uh starlet time from i started dancing school at the age of two and a half and my mother put me in the dancing school because i had so much energy she thought i'd pull the house down so i did start that and after i learned my craft and the man you said who found me i didn't like his face and so i hid under the piano while the other children were doing a time step and his fate would have it he said i want that one and uh so that got my start but i was a starlet from three and a half to age five and those were the little short films of which i still am a short subject but anyway after that i became a star at the age of five and knew my craft already and and it was um it was work but i just loved it well we'll get into your career a little bit more but you know it's you took yourself out of the publicity picture for a long long time now you've turned around you've written an autobiography child star and i mean what what uh compelled you to get into the world of authors why write the book and the world of authors well you're an author now well i started the book right um a lot of talking i love live tv i worked with a lion once don't ever do that anyway i started the book to to write it for my children for my family and to correct the errors that have been in some 12 other biographies that have been written about me over the years one of a recent one of the recent ones has um 526 factual errors so i'm really glad that i've written it so you kind of wanted to just set things straight and yeah and after i after about the sixth year of writing i said maybe i'd like to share this with with everybody else so that's why we're going to take a look um at one of your at a scene from one of your films this is the one where you sing animal crackers in my suit yes all right okay but but but before we do that is there anything i mean anything that that comes to mind about the scene where you're singing that that you know maybe we should know about well i was an orphan as usual i rarely had two parents in any film and and quite often none at all but um i was a happy orphan as you'll see a good song let's take a look at this real quickly you ever cook yourself up a great big bowl of popcorn and go out to the video store and get it i would love to cook oh no i would you know i have no connection with the films at all in fact they haven't even sent me any of the color i guess they're colorized or something now some of them oh how is it we're hearing boots yeah i don't think i'm going to like that you don't like that either well i've only seen one film color colorized and this isn't a ted turner no no no no not not yet anyway but anyway i saw a movie i think it was miracle on 34th street and maureen o'hara's beautiful red hair was kind of brown santa claus's beard was gray and his suit was kind of pink and i said i don't think i like colorization but do you watch your own do you watch your movies i i was there you know i know i know the plots i know a lot of the dance steps and all that still although i don't have any need for it in diplomacy yet you had a good time back then i loved it i loved every minute i loved the the tumbles and the hurts and the everything that happened i loved what i learned a lot you you hung out a lot with the with the stage crews they're my favorites in fact i'm sorry i haven't been able to meet camera tonight hi camera hi camera hi there and you're we'll bring them out later here's another one yeah i was wondering if you had any dreams when you were a child of what you wanted to be when you grow up or anything like that i wanted to be a a vegetable seller i wanted to sell that was an early early wish the vegetables look so fresh and pretty and bright and i thought i'd like to stand out on the street with a basket and sell vegetables then i wanted to be a pie salesman moving right along and then i wanted to join the fbi and j edgar hoover said you're 45 inches tall and 45 pounds you're too square for the fbi then when i was a teenager i wanted to be a brain surgeon i was quite serious about that and people said no one would ever come to shirley temple for a brain surgery maybe pediatrician i could get by with and so finally i guess my then i said what i really want to do is to join the foreign service and that i have always had such respect uh for the men and women of the the foreign service i probably should have done that but i got married instead at 17. got to ask you the story i mean i i thought this was a great story may i interrupt you last february george schultz secretary of state schultz uh had a ceremony and made me um honorary foreign service officer and i'm really thrilled gotta hear the story no no i gotta hear the story with the slingshot and eleanor roosevelt i'm very embarrassed about it i'm serious i thought that was great that was the real me you know explain that so we can share with everyone well i was really a tomboy when i got home from school i'd take off the little starch dress and the mary janes and put on jeans and a t-shirt and climb trees and i always carry the slingshot in my purse and here i was all dressed up at hyde park with eleanor roosevelt who i admired greatly she was one of my heroines and i was 10 years old and she was cooking lamb chops barbecuing them outside and she leaned over flipping and the target was it was there and i i picked up one of her pebbles and right on target and she went whoo she had a high voice and the secret service starts looking around what happened you know and the only one who saw it was my mother and she punished me in the same spot when i got back to the hotel now you were you were kind of upset with eleanor roosevelt because of the police badges that's right right she didn't she gave it away she gave the badges to uh sisty and buzzy i think her little grandchildren forerunners of today's preppies fuzzy and never mind boy that i understood it but your police badgers maybe we should explain that a little bit because you had your own police department of which as we mentioned j edgar hoover was a member yeah well it started out with paper clips i put paper clips on people and and make them a member of my police force of which i was the chief and i was about seven and after a while the director got kind of sorry for me with the paper clips also they ran out of paper clips so he sent to a toy store and got some 10 fbi g-man badges that was neat but that still wasn't right so finally he just broke down he had little badges made that were kind of brass that said shirley temple police force and i was very serious about this surely um one thing when i i have to pick a little bone with you because it was uh great controversy but you didn't have to get a permanent for shirley curls put you in your place you got me there no you look real nice when i was four and a half years old and you were doing so well my mother decided that i should take dancing lessons for about 13 years i'd have to fight my way off a baseball field or a football field my mother would say come and take your dancing lesson and you caused all sorts of bad problems can you still do it i thank you for it though can you can you dance uh well i do the time step every morning while i'm shaving ooh ouch hold on is it true that you're looking for a job with vice president bush the president-elect yes i'm always proud to serve my country and i i'll be happy to serve again quick answers let me throw some names out at you um amelia earhart she was i had four heroes or heroines when i was a little girl eleanor roosevelt funny enough was one and j edgar hoover and amelia earhart and bill robinson the tap dancer those were my four super people jane withers was not on that list well we were sort of contemporary you know i mean no i don't think you ever think of a peer group person as a hero no gary cooper he was tall he was wonderful but um he called me wiggle britches which i liked and he gave me some very pretty presents very nice nice man we will we will talk about these more in a moment and and you made reference to this we she called them uncle billy bill robinson and together they created some of the most memorable film scenes of all time they also created some controversy because at the time it was unheard of for a little white girl to be dancing with a black man we'll talk about both aspects of this when we come back stay with us when you're my duck are not just ordinary animals my daddy my mommy teach them to do tricks on the scene and just what is your duck train to do oh my god does a wonderful trick my dick can lay an egg and just what is so wonderful about that well can you lay an egg obviously i think in most people's minds the most famous of your co-stars has has got to be bill robinson mr bo and you call them uncle billy i called lionel bearmore uncle lionel i called just about everybody uncle i called my father uncle i think once because i got so confused almost daddy's at work all the time you were real close with him we were the first interracial dance couple on the screen and in the south of our country any scene where we're touching hands would be cut out of the movie for the south now of course that was all pre-civil rights so now they can see the whole thing well i'll tell you what let's take a look at the real thing okay one of the more famous dance scenes in the little kernel right the staircase let's take a look at that um she didn't work at all yet that looks that looks like a cheaper film clip because i'm not in it we couldn't afford the one with that that's right when you when the two of you danced together you had a series of uh signals that you made with one another where he would squeeze your hand and well how did that evolve well if it was good you know we'd get a good squeeze and if it was started good too and then if it was we have to do it again it would be three but i learned by listening to bill listening to the steps you know you don't look down at your feet right ever and um so i'd kind of listen and learn it that way he was super we had some some kind of chemistry it was just and he was he was such a good friend that he goes all the way through my book all the way through child star even after he died there was an experience in the hospital when i almost died and bill robinson was was there you know one of the things in your book it seems threaded there is is the questioning that you had for him why he got quarters in such and such a place and uh you know where the chauffeur stayed and things of that nature so you seemed aware or at least somehow conscious of the fact that he was being treated differently i started to be that incident you mentioned which was in palm springs california at the desert inn and i was down there because i had a cold and the studio sent me down a lot to get i feel the same way anyway um i asked bill when he came down to teach me a new dance number i said um where are you staying which cottage and he said oh don't worry about it darling you don't need to know and i said i'd like to know where you're staying so finally he said i'm staying in the show first quarters over the garage and i said why aren't you staying you know one of the cottages he says don't worry i'm there with my chauffeur he was a super good do you think that your mother influenced you at all in uh her feelings towards bill robinson in her racial feelings or did you have a chance to develop your own kind of feelings my mother is very wise she allowed me i thought i was leading all the time i didn't realize i was getting protective you know direction but she allowed me to make my own decisions and to develop my own judgment about things and i was completely colorblind as far as people always have been uh yes ma'am uh first thing to tell you i had a crush on you when i was five and uh secondly a bit of gossip how well did you know the joan crawford family and was there much truth to the mommy dearest scandal well in the book child star uh i mentioned when geor joan crawford came to the house one time with with a couple of her children and the little boy i think was christopher yeah slapped her she slapped him first and he slapped her back and she turned to her husband philip cherry and said he struck me i just was just i do a passing thing but the the most interesting thing she gave me a a black cocker spaniel puppy um for i don't think any particular reason i think it was near my birthday but it was little puppy and i put it with my pekingese in the back porch and the next morning that dog was dead it had this temper and it died during the night i didn't see her much she lived nearby but i didn't see her much we have someone on the phone who wants to get involved in this go ahead you're on town meeting yes it's a real thrill to talk to you uh legend has it that you were considered for the part of dorothy and the film wizard of oz if that's the case do you regret not getting that part i would have loved to have played dorothy in the wizard of oz my dad read the whole oz book series to me while my mother set my hair at night she'd put my hair around two fingers and put one bobby pin in it and the wizard of oz i was supposed to be loaned to mgm and they were to loan clark gable and jean harlow to fox studio and me to mgm to louie bemir and at the last minute gene harlow dropped dead and so the whole deal fell through but in retrospect i don't think there could have been a better dorothy than judy garland and she was super i'm so thrilled that you're here you look just beautiful thank you you have such an amazing memory your book you talk about age two is there any explanation is it because you've been told so much that happened or seen your movies or are you just exceptional i've met other people who have memories that go back like mine do i don't think i'm a freak but it's really a strong long memory and then when i wrote child start what i did was to go through all my scrapbooks which i'd never done the big professional ones that my mother had had made and through the diaries through all the records and i could then put a date to when i met amelia earhart you know knowing i'd met her but not the exact date occurs and so that was very helpful i was interested in knowing what your feelings were as a child towards your fans how did they differ now that you're an adult towards your fans my fans have always been wonderful they've been just so loving and so much affection and when you're 60 years old like i am it feels good in the old days i mean that one lady who tried to pull a curl she thought it was a wig and the car was leaving in boston in 1938 and the window was down because the photographer wanted a picture and she reached in and pulled and the car started off and you know i thought that's the end of that but i have a strong strong head and strong hair but sometimes they get a little rough yeah but now i'm i mean i can i know judo and you know sorry we digress look look at the button she's wearing by the way that's a big one and a little one above it yeah i just wanted to tell you we're really glad to have you in seattle and you look beautiful thanks and we just want you to know that you've brought a lot of a lot of happy times to a lot of generations both in childhood and adulthood thank you and we were wondering if you have a current project you're working on either political or with a new book well for the last eight years i've been working at the department of state as a teacher i train new first-time us ambassadors before they go to post overseas and it's kind of a popular mechanics course where after the it's a one lake week-long session each time and at the end of about the middle of the course after we got them all puffed up how honored they are to be touched by the president and become an ambassador we tell them what to do if taken hostage and that day sobers them up a lot because it's a very serious problem around the world what are your duties hold on hold on sir just we need the mic this is electronic media electronic media ken why don't you take a little risk because we're having fun down here oh yeah i'll take a break hold on please don't leave me my question um welcome shirley thanks really thrilled to see you and meet you uh i wonder if you could comment on your childhood versus other childhood stars of your era it appears your life has been very fulfilling and successful and you've carried on um to do a lot of different and and wonderful things but i think of judy garland of the little boy that played in treasure island some of the other child stars that that had a little bit of a problem it seemed coming the main reason things are okay with me is because of my mother and i dedicated my book to my mother i love my father and my brothers a lot but my mother and i from early were partners and we were pioneers neither one of us knew what we were doing some of the time and i think she was and also when you start work that early it seems very normal when a child is is an adolescent or getting to the age where they understand things that's when the big head comes and they don't know how to take care of of fame they don't know how to handle it uh the third reason would be that the head of the studio when i was little wouldn't let me have lunch in the studio commissary he said that i'd become a little adult i shouldn't mix with adults at lunch and so he had a little bungalow for me with rabbits and chickens and uh two bantam roosters and a swing you know and all that and it was a very uh very nice existence i hit on this swing i had a sandbox there if i had dug a little deeper i would have hit oil because where that swing was there is now a great big pumping oil well yeah at 18 years of or after 18 years of uh having movies under her belt shirley temple pulled the plug on hollywood at age 21. we'll talk about why when we come back stay with us grandfather grandfather grandfather she's hurting me grandfather take me home ah shirley temple america's most loved child star is now a grown woman ready to share her story she tells of working long hard hours of making a fortune and losing most of it and of playing her favorite part the role of wife and mother shirley temple on shirley temple join us go ahead the question i want to ask is why on the cover of your book did you pick that particular picture the publisher picked that picture i picked the one on the back because it was the only recent one that was taken by a fellow from germany anyway shirley 53 years ago was the last time i saw you in person you were in your yard and i was spending the summer in mandeville canyon the next canyon to you and i when i saw you you were riding a tricycle how many years ago 57 years old 53 54 years make up your mind were you wearing a yellow shirt i just wondered there were two two uniformed guards by you and you're riding your tricycle and i just you know at the time i thought i felt so sorry for that poor little girl i bet you did you just wonder how i made those i loved uniforms on people and i only had one bodyguard and he had flat feet i could get away from him easily but the uniform guys might have been just visiting it might have been the chilean navy or kevin knows what but now there were i mean there during the course of your career there were you know extortion attempts there was one asset at least one assassination attempt just one 1939 tell us about that um i was doing a live radio program at cbs if i can mention that yeah and uh this is abc right yeah but you can still mention cbs it was radio anyway and during the um just before we did the show i was looking out the window in the dressing room and mother was doing my curls and as usual and i saw a woman searching the windows and looking kind of angry and when she saw me she looked really angry and shook her fist in the air and i said that mother that mother that woman doesn't seem to like shirley temple so anyway mother called the police or told that told the studio security i guess and they called the police and i think the fbi was called to and when i went out to do the bluebird i was doing a song from the bluebird the woman was seated about where you are back there with the scarf around your neck or you are the tap dancer and she had a big purse on her lap and she was still looking angry you know angrily at me and i had this little skinny microphone which i was trying to kind of make it get whiter and the security guys came down the aisle she went in her purse and brought out a gun you know like that and they lifted her they took the gun from her and lifted her by the arms and took her out of the theater and i'm singing someday you'll find your bluebird but the reason i said you know why did she want to kill me and um her daughter had died the day i was born and she thought i'd stolen her daughter's soul and what she didn't realize is that fox studio took one year off my age when i got there and it wasn't was the wrong soul anyway you uh we're going to take a look at a film clip here in a moment from a movie you made with carrie grant oh he was super wonderful actor let's take a look at that first the the teenager the bobby socks bachelor in the back bachelor in the bodybuilding way remember what you said about painting one of us america and the waving green and everything yes i do what do you think i'd make a good model oh you're not thinking you're quitting the newspaper game oh that's merely a stop gap my family wants me to go into law but i don't want to be a porsche well that's something you and your family can straighten out well my attitude is that one female judge in the family is enough did you say your name was turner that's right my sister judge margaret turner i still met the family bye what about my posing all right every woman's heartthrob what was he like no you know we all had a crush on him but um he was always very tan i don't know how he kept that wonderful tan but he didn't have to wear makeup and he was a perfectionist and he was very funny and i like to imitate him once got me in trouble was it a good imitation well what i did it was i mean was it good enough that you might try no no never again i just thought i'd ask it was right after lunch one day and i tend to be kind of you know after lunch food again and the crew my friends my buddies the crew i was doing this take off on carrie grant and they were laughing hardly and i was having fun and suddenly they all got silent and cary grant was standing right by the camera and he was furious and he told the producer of the film dory sherry you know she's going to have to leave she's out and he called my boss david oselznick and i had to drive all the way over to david oselznick who dressed me down real well and said you've got to go back and apologize and i went back and apologized second time in my life i'd had to apologize to an actor and he accepted it very gracefully which i was delighted about and as he was turning to go back on the set he said it wasn't a bad invitation you know he was very very great having you here um i was born in 1950 in a group on your movies and i really enjoyed them you were so positive i think even now we need that kind of confidence and good side versus the bad side my favorite show was we will inky as a little girl and since you went away what was your favorite movie that you had done we willy winky yeah as a little girl the two later were kiss and tell by fu herb f u f hugh herbert and uh bachelor in the bobby soxer by sydney sheldon but weevily winky i liked for reasons that are in the book but which most people wouldn't think about i liked it because i liked march i liked wearing the uniform the kilts and i liked my wooden rifle and learning the manual of arms and john ford you know the whole thing was i got in that movie i got to run in front of a a herd not herd a bunch of herd of horses a herd of horses wild stampeding horses and my mother wanted me to have a double do it little boy they had handy with a wig on and i said no way i want to do that myself it was really fun to run in front of those horses timing wise and then climb up in the rocks and if i tripped we wouldn't have had to worry about the book i wouldn't have been here but you liked and afterwards john ford gave you the uh yeah that's right that's when he finally decided that little girls were okay and that was important for you to be accepted yes at the time especially by the director we have someone online go ahead you're on town meeting hi i'm megan and i wondered um how i could get any information how to be a child star like you were oh tell me this isn't a setup you know what it sounds like my granddaughter that's not you teresa is it no couldn't because it's not done no um well tell your mommy to give you lots of love and you study very hard in school and maybe dancing wouldn't hurt that's good for you anyway it makes you fall gracefully right and lots of luck and work hard we we talked about why did you leave you had 18 years in hollywood uh 19 actually okay 19 years yeah that's right we forgot the the little fudging on the uh university that's right at 21 you left i married charlie black we married on december 16th of 1950 when i was 22 and uh on december 16th we start our 39th wedding anniversary the real the real reason for for leaving though more on on a practical basis was that i was tired of the world of make-believe and wanted to live in the real world that's um i was just through with believe pretty much it was also it seem and i i i don't want to pull this out of context in in your book but you were beginning to get the feeling i think you termed it that everybody in hollywood was copulating rats cats okay cats but i was close i was close almost at it there you said it but you were beginning to experience you would experience some things there on that side well once at 12 and once at 20 you know it's not too bad um when i was 12 the producer of the wizard of oz by the way is the one who called me into his office and um he was not a producer he was an exhibitor he uh he was an exhibitionist and i had never seen anyone naked except myself and had no clue and thought this was terribly funny and laughed heartily and made him so enraged that he said get out get out get up i'm not going to follow that up today have to make note one of shirley temple's early comedy shorts was called kid in africa well 40 years later shirley temple did indeed make it to africa as the u.s ambassador to the republic of ghana we will talk about that when we come back so stay with us temple go ahead my friend and i used to watch the shirley temple theater every every sunday we're in 4th grade it's such a thrill to meet you i was wondering besides the bill um i've got a robin from robinson who is your favorite adult star to work with i i can recall betty epstein and arthur treacher's buddy epson was wonderful i see him occasionally and arthur treacher of course is gone now we were very good friends no from a distance see in movies when you're a child you don't get to know the stars very well only in the scenes because every time the scene was over i'd have to go back to my school to the trailer and have my classes so it's not true that you really get to know anybody very well but i was an expert on belt buckles and handbags and i didn't like skinny hands on men i liked big you know big hands and cushy laps j edgar hoover had the best lap you mentioned grandchildren how many children and grandchildren do you have charlie we have three children who are all grown of course susan's 40 now susan is the mother of our only grandchild who's theresa our granddaughter let's in we have a son oh i'm sorry another daughter our son works in washington dc at the department of commerce in the international trade administration and our youngest daughter is a photographer and also plays base in a heavy metal band 69 richard nixon appoints you to the united nations and that was a three-month stint am i correct it's the it was the 24th general assembly of the union then i stayed on another two years in the environment and then president ford appointed you as ambassador to god what was that like being u.s ambassador to the republic of ghana was the very best job of my whole life of anything i've done it was just the best it was substantive it was exciting it was hot it's a subtropical climate but the ghanaian people are just wonderful people they're very much like americans they're outgoing uh good sense of humor and industrious and as you've said then george schultz appointed you and you've been you've been working with ambassadors training them yeah i did all right i guess yeah kind of okay they let me teach uh i think it's up to 249 i've done over the last eight years and their spouses and you're you're hoping for an appointment from president-elect bush i've known president-elect bush since 1970 and we like him very much we like barbara and george and i would expect that i'll be working although i did write him a letter i don't take chances with all the things that you've received over the years reagan never did call you know i i said maybe it's because i have an unlisted phone number i never did hear from ronald reagan with all the things you received over the years and all the scrapbooks you must have kept is there a shirley temple museum no no but i've i've wanted to have a children's museum someday it may never happen but all of my costumes i have all the costumes including the pandalettes and the hoop skirts and the all the underwear socks shoes you know and someday i'd like to have a museum just for children's things and put my dolls in there and the costumes and everything else we can find i've only been tap dancing for two and a half years okay do you still tap dance or do you know any of your i don't have much need for it however i did teach my granddaughter the shim sham shimmy which uncle bill taught me we do that in the kitchen it's charming and perhaps the more you get into politics the more you'll have to learn how to tap dance uh seems to be the case go ahead your own time meeting let's get to a caller yes if you ever had the chance to um go back into a business would you do it absolutely not no i like international relations that's my interest major why would you wouldn't even consider doing anything in show business at age 60 what kind of parts would i get shirley your book do you think that where are you right here do you think there's a chance that they might make a tv movie out of it or some kind of exercise i don't know the search for shirley chapel would be something i don't want to go through i you know i don't know 50 years ago shirley temple was the youngest grand marshal of the pasadena rose parade in january 1989 the 100th anniversary of the rose parade she was going to serve once again as the grand marshal and we will talk about that a little bit when we come back shirley temple go ahead is it true that when you were six years old you paid a visit to santa claus and he asked you for your autograph and what did you think i thought he kind of smelled uh like lionel barrimore did one time kind of a fruity smell yeah that santa claus wasn't a very good one no that was just a stand-in for the real santa though surely i was wondering if your children and your grandchild are going to get to view your old movies as mine have what they do they have theresa likes them very much she's still young enough you know my children every seventh birthday i would have shown them every birthday up to the seventh year and first my daughter said can't we do something else like go to the roller rink or go ice skating or just go to a restaurant and each child at about age seven or eight that was it now when now that they're older or old they like them a lot why don't you you um we mentioned the rose parade it was 50 years ago i did the 50th anniversary of the rose parade now i'm doing the hundredth and i'm going to have my granddaughter with me um leading the parade now back then you you the thing you said you liked most about that was you got to wear the badge the bed and you like to smell the flowers it's the best smelling parade yeah are you are you how do you remain unimpressed by
